Once you perform a screenshot, there is no button to make another screenshot. Two use cases:
* create shortcut `Print` to be `xfce4-screenshooter -f -m`. If you want some different screenshot type, then you can't do it. You need to start `xfce4-screenshooter` in another way.
* I start `xfce4-screenshooter` and choose region, then I change my mind and want another region or screenshot type. I need to launch `xfce4-screenshooter` again

I would like to have a button "New Screenshot" where I can make another one. This is similar to other screenshotters.

A 'retake' button next to the cancel and ok buttons would be practical. I presume the logic for the button would be to launch the xfce4-screensaver and exit the current instance.

Mate has a 'New' button in their dialog.
